Ironically, I had originally went downtown to take pictures of the skyline and the pictures of my haphazardly parked car came out better than the ones I took of the skyline.

Pics come out good. I think your car would benefit from a slight drop (imo) and I think pic 1 would have been better if the wheels were straight (again, just my opinion). The second shot is cool too!

Where were these taken?

I saving up for full suspension work. Now that I've gotten back into photography, I'm torn between spending my money on camera stuff and car stuff.

These pics were taken in downtown Oklahoma City.

Haha, I am the same way with my S4 and my camera gear. Gotta take turns with them, both are expensive hobbies.

Really nice looking car. I have a 2004 silver s60 - how are you keeping your black exterior trim so black?

Nice car. My first job out of college was for Aisin, the auto trans supplier for nearly all of the Volvo cars. We had a V70 and S60 T5 for testing and development work. Turbo lag with the T5 auto is a bit rough off the line. And then the tires start smoking. ;)

No, but I've been there before.

I'll post some shots of my car later.

I hate it when that happens! :D

Whoa ... thread resurrection!

It's a combination of Photoshop and Mother's Back to Black. :D

I go on Swedespeed. They have more discussions about the P2 platform.

Also, I submitted these photos to IPD (Volvo tuner) and they included them in their 2009-2010 catalog. I even got an one page spread. :)

That's pretty awesome! :D

Mother's Back to Black is some great stuff. I have noticed that it works better on moldings rather than trim, though.
